Question 3

I'm a bit worried about some test results I got. It says I have two non-obstructing calculus in my right kidney, one measuring 3.5mm and another 4.0mm, located in the interpole and lower pole calyx. The left kidney also has two non-obstructing calculus, measuring 3.6mm and 4.4mm in the same areas. Should I be concerned about these? Are there any symptoms I should watch out for or lifestyle changes I need to make?
